Psy Is Back


Will Psy and his song "Gangnam Style" go into the music history books as a "one-hit wonder"?  Blog reader ClubMaster shares with us Psy's followup "Gentleman M/V", a K-Pop song which already has close to 200 million views on YouTube.  Looks like this is catchy enough to have staying power although the dance moves pictured in the video seem rehashed from the original hit.

The public doesn't seem as fired up about this song compared to Gangnam Style. In fairness, it did take that one a little while to catch on so maybe that will happen with this song too.

Yeah, part of the fun of the original song was the stupid dance that went with it, a dance everyone could do. This song appears to re-use some of the dances from Gangnam Style but is kind of all over the place.

He said in an interview recently that it's called the "arrogant" dance and it was something they already know in South Korea but the it'll be new to the rest of the world. The origins of the dance trace back to a song from 2009 by another South Korean artist.
